Dub vs. Sub
Reply
Posted 2009-10-27, 04:54 PM
An argument that will outlast debates of the existence of God...except this argument is even more pointless.

Do you prefer to watch anime in their original language or in your native tongue? I assum emost people here originally speak English bu tI'm not sure so I'm just saying any dub.

If I had to choose, I would say dubbed. Why would I want to read a TV show? ..that's what books are for.

For the most part, subs>dubs. I've been told there are some exceptions but I don't watch enough anime to know them.

Depends, really.
I'm a Dub guy, for the most part, but Gurren Lagann was better in Japanese, and I'm sure Jojo's Bizzare adventure was too... because Jojo was horrible dubbing.

To me, it all depends. Throw in Johnny Yong and Yuri Lowenthal and it's offically a "good dub".

Subs. The only exception is Cowboy Bebop.

Subs. You get used to reading it after awhile. Dubs are sometimes horribly done and get annoying.

I only say dubbed because the only anime i've ever watched I guess would be considered Dragon Ball/DBZ. I really liked the show, and it was dubbed. There is my bias.

Speaking of bad dubs, it's Mdselctr. Hi!
You reminded me to watch Evagelion in subs. The dub was so badly done! D:
I think I got to episode... 4 or 5? Whatever. The point is, I really wanna finish it.

I prefer subs, but I usually end up watching dubs.

I also hated Azumanag's dub...
They had a good idea with Osaka's voice, but they should've definately picked a different person for it...

I generally prefer subs. I've heard the dubs for Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo, and I thought they were awful. The dubs for Outlaw Star, however, were alright, and it's currently the only anime I could bear to watch with dubs.

In terms of films, I've seen most of the [Miyazaki] Studio Ghibli films in both English and Japanese, and I think the Japanese ones are better, though the English voice-acting is of a good quality (mainly because a lot of them are big-name actors).

I watch subs first. Then at a later date when I rewatch the series, I'll give the dub a shot.

I'm not a sub only guy but experience has shown me that 90% of dubs are bad. Really bad.

In some video games, I'd rather have the dub, since they tend to have more emotion (NIS games, at least...)

But... anything by Square Enix. Needs subs. BAD.
